1. Maintain oral health: Local oral health is very important for orthodontics. If we can have some oral health knowledge and keep good oral health, we will save a lot of time when receiving orthodontic treatment.
The first is to maintain oral hygiene and clean teeth regularly, which is also commonly known as "tooth washing".
It should be said that tooth cleaning is not only to prepare for correcting teeth. Although we brush our teeth every day, and maybe more than twice, it is impossible to clean every part of our teeth because of our different mastery of brushing skills and the defects of the toothbrush itself. In the long run, these parts will deposit dirt and gradually mineralize and harden into stones.
2, excluding other systemic diseases: correcting teeth is for beauty, but a beautiful appearance must first be healthy. Therefore, a systematic health examination should be done before correcting teeth. There are many systemic diseases that generally affect orthodontic treatment, such as systemic diseases, diabetes, hepatitis, heart disease, kidney disease and so on. Suffering from these diseases does not mean that orthodontics cannot be performed at all. These diseases are under control and can still be treated.
In addition, some bone metabolic diseases, developmental diseases and all diseases that affect the movement of teeth in bone need the cooperation of orthodontists and other doctors to jointly design orthodontic schemes.
3, psychological adjustment: how to correct teeth is a doctor's business, whether to correct teeth is your own business. The so-called psychological adjustment is why you want to correct your teeth and whether you can understand and accept the process of correction. -Dr. Suzhou Dentist and Stomatologist will answer your questions! ! !
